Sage's palms were cold and sweaty. Her head was pounding, and her heart was cold and sinking, void of any warmth.

The group was on the way to the Ark Mountains Hospital. Luther told Sage about Jekyll's death. Jekyll's men ambushed the police on their way to the airport. They tried to escape and exchanged fire with the police. Jekyll was shot in several places and finally killed by a single blow.

Jekyll died. The demon that tormented her, causing her so much pain, was finally dead.

However, Jace and Yale's car collided with Jekyll's car. It was a serious and bad accident.

Jace and Yale were taken to the nearest hospital from Ark Mountains, but… things might be bad.

The sunny weather suddenly turned gloomy. The sky changed so soon, making it unbearable.

Sage stiffened. Luther continuously comforted her, but she just could not seem to hear him. All the voices were cut off from her ears. She could hear nothing.

Her memories flashed before her eyes quickly.

He was so quiet, like he was asleep.He was probably just asleep.Yes. He was just asleep."What are you guys still standing around for?"Sage suddenly spoke up with a raspy voice, "Take the patient to the ward and let him rest."Everyone stared at her in shock. No one responded.Sage got angry. None of them listened to her. Why?Nevermind. She could push herself.Sage walked around the bed and pushed the stretcher toward the ward.Cling. She heard a noise and something seemed to fall from Jace's palm.She stopped walking and looked down to see a hairpin.It was a wooden hairpin that broke into half. There was a rose carved on the wooden hairpin that was stained with blood.It looked like a blood-red rose.Drip. A tear fell from Sage's eyes. She raised her hand and tried to wipe her eyes dry.

She looked at the white and ashen face and body on the cold bed. She could not believe this was the man she had loved for ten years.He was still handsome and cold.

    Yale was still unconscious.He was badly injured and in a similar condition to Jace three and half a year ago. Yale had a broken sternum and fractures all over his body.

If things did not improve, there was a good chance that he would stay in a coma.Sage had done what a doctor should do. The rest was up to Yale.Sage returned to Rosa Garden with her brothers. Zamora heard about Jace. She felt distressed, looking at Sag's pale face.It was too late to say anything, so she rushed to make the arrangements for Tim and the rest to settle down.Sage was completely exhausted, and her eyes were swollen.She said she wanted to be alone for a while and shut her brothers out of the door.Luther and Nigel were worried that she might do something stupid.

It was too hard to stay awake with all the sadness around her.This feeling seemed very strange.She was drowning in sorrow with an inexplicable bitterness and emptiness.

    Sage faked her death after Jace got into a car accident. She went to Nadeem City and married him without a second thought. Her brothers were against it but were not firm enough to stop it.If they knew this would happen, they would have never agreed to let her stay with him for three years. Even if she had hated them, they would have stopped her.Unfortunately, there was no if. Time would not turn back. Perhaps, this was fate.Luther was a little sad too. "To be honest, I'm sad too. Although Jace treated Sage badly in the marriage, he really wanted to make up for it after the divorce and even risked his life…" Luther choked up and could not go on. Sadness was looming in Nigel's eyes. "Maybe this is how he wanted to make it up for her. Unfortunately, the price he paid was too high. The dead can't come back to life. They could have been fine."Kane took a hard drag on his cigarette with grim eyes. "What's the point of talking about it now? He's dead. Whatever he has done to Sage

    However, she always felt that something was missing.Later, when she was with Jeykll and Peter, she suddenly realized that Jace did not have any desire for her.He had never had any intimate interaction with her.

When she took the initiative to get on it with him, he did not do it with her.If he really liked her, would he not have desires for her? Why would he not want to be one with her?

    Sage came.She initially did not want to come. She thought she could pretend none of these happened if she did not see the burial. However, it was pointless to run away.Tim said to her, "You have had a love and a marriage. Sending him away will be a fulfillment to you and him."Sage took off the sunglasses. With red and dry eyes, she quietly stared at the photo on the tombstone—what a familiar face.She quickly recognized that this photo was taken when Jace had just returned home to inherit the family business after his transfer from the army.

    Jace made Sage stay up all night. Sage was so sleepy that her eyes were closing."Sleep. I'll wake you up later."Jace leaned down and kissed her forehead. As he closed his eyes, he remembered something and sat up sharply."By the way, we have to wear white shirts for tomorrow's photo session. We haven't prepared the shirt…"Jace rolled over and jumped off the bed right after saying that. Sage could not stop him in time, so she turned on the lamp helplessly. She leaned over the bed and waited for Jace in silence.Shortly after, Jace came back with two shirts. His eyes were shining. "Dear, you've prepared for us?""Yeah." Sage nodded weakly. "I've got them ready. I've had Zamora iron them for me."Jace could finally put his mind at ease. "What about the documents and identifications…"Sage pulled open the drawer of the bedside table and took out the papers and documents she had prepared ahead. "It's all here."Sage looked at Jace.

Use sweeter and flirtatious words that would make people blush. Forget about modesty and shame in bed. It's best to whisper them into her ears…"Sage read the notes with a straight face, making Jace so embarrassed that he could hardly keep his feet on the ground.Jace strode forward with a stiff face and tried to snatch the notebook away. Sage was quick to dodge and continued reading with her head down."Step two, be aggressive at your offense. Focus and remember this, being rough yet gentle. You can use props such as blindfolds, ties, handcuffs, and so on…"Sage's face turned red while reading it. As the images popped into her mind, she had to stop reading.Jace was about to go crazy. He buried his face in his hands, unable to look up at Sage."Where did you learn all these?" Sage threw the notebook at Jace. "Rough yet gentle? Are you seriou

A trace of interest flashed in Jace's eyes.Sage did not understand, so she asked, "What does a small forward do?"Jace explained, "The small forwards are typically the tallest and most athletic of all players. They are responsible for scoring points and defending. The main goal of strong shooters is to score and create opportunities for teammates. In other cases, they would operate as off-ball specialists. They would wait for teammates to pass the ball, catch the ball, and shoot to score."Seeing Sage's confused look, Jace added, "James and Durant, for example, are playing as small forwards.""Oh!"

Sage knew he would get back at her.She rolled over and lay on top of Jace. She played with his chest and said in a muffled voice, "I have a new nickname for you."Jace responded, "Hm?"Sage looked up at him. "Vengeance."Jace was stunned and soon broke into a peal of laughter.
